Neglect of appearance becomes men.

Summary

This quote suggests that when individuals neglect their outward appearance, they start to lose their perceived status as men or as the embodiment of masculine qualities. It implies that presenting oneself well is important for men to be recognized and respected in society. By focusing on personal grooming, clothing choices, and overall appearance, individuals reinforce societal expectations and traditional gender norms. Therefore, according to this quote, neglecting one's appearance may lead to a loss of social recognition and inclusion within the context of masculinity.

Our planning system was dynamite when we first put it in. The thinking was fresh; the form mattered little. It was idea oriented. We then hired a head of planning, and he hired two vice presidents, and then he hired a planner; and the books got thicker, and the printing more sophisticated, and the covers got harder, and the drawings got better.

Closing up. Finally spent.You are gone.And now you're moving

Closing up. Finally spent.You are gone.And now you're moving along.Heavy now. Tears remain.Hard pressed to rest.When all I feel like is a mess.Now, don't you worry your head.You're not my one and only friend.And I don't need you anymore.To leave me bruised and broken on the floor.You left me bruised. You left me broken.You left me bruised. You left me broken.
